+.SH "NAME"
+systemd-tpm2-generator \- Generator for inserting TPM2 synchronization point in the boot process
+.SH "SYNOPSIS"
+.PP
+/usr/lib/systemd/system\-generators/systemd\-tpm2\-generator
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+systemd\-tpm2\-generator
+is a generator that adds a
+\fIWants=\fR
+dependency from
+sysinit\&.target
+to
+tpm2\&.target
+when it detects that the firmware discovered a TPM2 device but the OS kernel so far did not\&.
+tpm2\&.target
+is supposed to act as synchronization point for all services that require TPM2 device access\&. See
+\fBsystemd.special\fR(7)
+for details\&.
+.PP
+The
+\fBsystemd\&.tpm2_wait=\fR
+kernel command line option may be used to override behaviour of the generator\&. It accepts a boolean value: if true then
+tpm2\&.target
+will be added as synchronization point even if the firmware has not detected a TPM2 device\&. If false, the target will not be inserted even if firmware reported a device but the OS kernel doesn\*(Aqt expose a device for it yet\&. The latter might be useful in environments where a suitable TPM2 driver for the available hardware is not available\&.
+.PP
+systemd\-tpm2\-generator
+implements
+\fBsystemd.generator\fR(7)\&.
